Hi, I have got a PC with 2 HDs. On the first PC I already have NT installed. The second HD is a removable HD on which I am installing FreeBSD. I want to leave the MBR of the first HD untouched, this way NT would always boot first. In order to start FreeBSD I was wondering if it was it possible to have a floppy with a MBR which would boot FreeBSD on the second HD. I remember I did this once with LILO/Linux. As I boot the PC with this floppy I would always start FreeBSD... Is there a way of doing this? Thanks Emmanuel
